What is Georgian wired glass?

Georgian wire glass, also known as patterned or decorative glass, is a type of window that has been decorated by applying different types of patterns or designs to it. It is usually made up of two sheets of clear glass with an interlayer between them. This layer is made up of several materials such as metal wires or rods which are arranged in a particular way to form a specific pattern on both sides when viewed.

What are the benefits of Georgian wired glass?

Georgian glass is a versatile material that can be used for a variety of different applications. It has many benefits including:

  • Durable
  • Easy to install
  • Great security compared to standard glass
  • Being fire rated by design, which can be a literal life saver in a property
  • Shatterproof. When the glass breaks, the glass stays in position due to the wire inside

Where is Georgian wired glass commonly used?

It’s commonly used in home decor, and can make an elegant and stylish statement to any room in your home. It is also used in commercial buildings, schools and restaurants for safety and fireproofing. Wired glass is ideal for use in sliding doors because they won’t break easily if opened and closed repeatedly. If you have large windows that need covering during the day but don’t want to compromise on light, Georgian wired glass is perfect for you. However, if a clear view is desired, it may be best to look for a different option as the wire in between obstructs the view. 

When should you consider buying Georgian wire glass?

If you want to increase security to your business and introduce fire proofing measures, Georgian glass may be the way forward. Reduce the risk of injury from flying glass in case of an accident or help prevent break-ins and vandalism. You can also improve the appearance of your building by adding architectural detail to your windows and doors.
